Ok, my very long, detailed post got erased when typing some how *pissed*

In a nutshell: USDing is a good investment. Whether or not an item is tangible it still takes time to obtain and a high standard of living doesn't only consists of how much you have but how much free/leisure time you have. I, for one, would prefer to spend a few bucks to obtain something from a game rather than waste 500 hours which can then be used to get back what I spent and then some. Did I mention items have re-sell value and usually appreciate?

If people like buying items, why knock them for it? Aparently they think their money is well spent. I liked selling items, and people like buying items, so where is the problem?

One problem, is how people like you obtained those items..

The problem i see with it is the very hard to find or even a few event items will ONLY be sold for USD, i see that as unfair to folks that either cannot spend real money in that way, or they are kids and don't have a way to pay.



This is a pretty strong reson GK is ....how to say....not good.

[Nidonemo]

Yeah, using USD is quite foolish too, you have no idea what's gonna happen.

[Splke]

A strong reason as to why GK is no good is because of USD? Haha, your funny.

I would rather spend 300$ on perfect gear, than spend 2000 hours+ attainning such gear. It's easier for me, I can make back that money, and then some.

Yes, USD sales are risky, foolish, and quite frankly illogical (selling intangiable items? wtf)... but it makes Graal go around, and helps the kids who can afford it play. :P

Let's not forget corruption, *******s, and lack of creative gameplay are the sole reasons GK isn't "too good". Don't blame USD, Stefan legialized it.

They don't usually re-sell or appreciate because people beg staff for them until they get them, causing more to be on the market, and then they depreciate.

For everone who hasn't taken Economics class..:
Intangible - Something that cannot be touched (such as a service)
Tangible - Something that can be touched (such as a good)

Hehehe sorry to revive this post but this must be said:

I don't know why people have such a problem with USDers. I mean, if you're playing this game, then obviously you paid a certain amount of real currency to play it, whether it be $28 or $50+ or whatever. Some just like to take it a step further I've made about $580, and spent only $100.
